Ethical Environment - Systems of a Moral Behavior
Some business problems arise due to failing on the ethical
grounds. The government has enacted many laws and regulations to bring about
harmonious operations in business.
However, some aspects of the business operations are left as ethics,
called the business ethics. The business ethics emerge from the professional
conduct, the business norms and codes on confidentiality, the payment and
documentation, the adherence to generally accepted standards of accounting and
auditing. Business ethics is a set of norms which are universally accepted as a
business behavior.
All these factors discussed so far, are beyond the control of
the manager. At best he can predict,
assess, evaluate and take such action which will help him to control the
situation.
